[ On this day, Yuri had been purposefully seeking out Sora. There's a wave of curiosity flowing out of her via vibes all the way there. She eventually finds her near the huge glass windows where the stars can be seen. ]
Excuse me... could I have some of your time?
Excuse me... could I have some of your time?
You require my assistance in any way, Ms. Yuri?
[Oh, she's willing to help, if anything is needed!]
[Oh, she's willing to help, if anything is needed!]
Yes, I wanted to ask some questions...
[ It's nothing like that survey the two guys are doing. Promise. ]
I couldn't help but to see that you had "creating a happier world" on the profile... Does that have to do with the daemons that you mentioned before?
[ It's nothing like that survey the two guys are doing. Promise. ]

In a manner of speaking, yes.
[Sora clasps her hands together and responds:]
The duty of the Jingu family is to protect the world from the dangers brought to them. Every moment the world is free from influences causing destruction is a moment happier than before, isn't it?
[There's a burst of love when she says:]
I'm working towards a world full of happiness and safety.
[It's a sincere love, intense and almost blinding. The world she cares about must be extremely important for her]

[It's a sincere love, intense and almost blinding. The world she cares about must be extremely important for her]
[ The fact that Yuri feels the passion so strongly from Sora blows away any skepticism that could have formed before it even begins. She looks like she's in awe, really. ]
Your world... it must be really precious to you.
[ She also wonders if Sora is something like a mama bear, because the vibes also feel similar. ]
Is it because your family is a part of that too?
[ The profile said "following family traditions", so she thinks that has something to do with it. ]

[ The profile said "following family traditions", so she thinks that has something to do with it. ]
That's exactly right. My family is the most important thing for me. Their comfort and safety is my biggest motivation.
[She's positively beaming, her voice getting a tad more animated than before]
Dear Yugo, and our son Shinya...I swore to myself I'd give them a world in which they could feel at ease. It's my lifelong goal.
[There's absolutely no doubt Sora means every word of that. This woman, ever since the emotionshare began, has been very guarded, almost muting her emotions as much as she could out of caution, but it's as if such barriers don't exist anymore when she talks about this]

[ Sora always seemed so serious and distrusting from the impressions that Yuri got from her, but this honestly impresses her even more. What Sora says aren't some platitudes to make herself sound good. With the emotions that she's feeling from her right now, there's no way that they're fake. Yuri finds herself firmly believing that.
Then her circumstances sound strange. The senior crew members said that they all signed the contract to come aboard, but there's no way... hm. ]
Would that sort of thing... ever stop? Would you have to fight for your goal forever?

Stop...?
[The thoughtshare makes a longing echo of she thinking the names of her loved ones burst forth, and Sora shakes her head immediately]
I doubt this can ever stop because...they depend on me to fight for them. No matter what I'd...I'd always...do my hardest to keep them safe and happy. If I don't do that then I wouldn't even have the right of calling myself Yugo's wife.
[As Sora sees it, her existence would have no significance if anything happened to them, or to everyone she sworn to protect. There's almost an entire academy of students and faculty that rely on her, that are beloved by Yugo, that are important to Shinya]
I'd fight for my goal until the end.
[And now she's in this spaceship, apparently going to work as a courier. What a twist life takes, eh?]

[ The idea of forming romantic relationships already feels beyond what Yuri could ever do, due to the nature of the place she came from. However, even she thinks that it's pretty harsh in regards to how Sora views herself as seemingly nothing if she couldn't protect her family. ]
Wouldn't your husband protest against that sort of thinking?
[ Is the family really that happy? From the way Sora seemed to have tripped up on some words makes Yuri wonder... the passion suddenly sounds like desperation. She knows that she's risking of sounding incredibly naive with the following statement, but she'll say it anyway--mostly because Sora's relationship looked like it was built on her love for her family. ]
... The right to be someone's wife should be based on your love for them, isn't it?

[Sora smiles serenely]
Oh, you're not mistaken. Love is the base of any relationship However... [The smile takes a bit of a sadder tinge] The way and I Yugo met was a somewhat...business-only relationship at first. It was only latter that it became a romantic marriage.
These days we're inseparable, but for a time I feared a mistake could lead to our irreversible separation. After all, even though he married into my family, he used to be unaware of what the Jingu family does.
[Yugo worked as the steward of the academy but he knows nothing about Daemons or Monarks or pacts, and Sora sure made sure it stayed that way. Their son Shinya knew far more about it, since naturally he'd be the next one to uphold the role of head of the family, but Yugo sure didn't]
That's a worry of the past since we have gotten closer now, but I suppose part of me hasn't left behind that fear.
[Sora laughs behind a hand, a little bashful]
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sure you didn't mean to hear me talk about my marriage, when you came to ask a question.

Oh, no. It gave me a lot more insight on why you feel that way. Thank you, Mrs. Jingu.
[ Yuri feels like she understands a little more now. ]
Did you ever find a law-specialized person to help you? I personally don't know any myself, so I can't recommend anyone...

Unfortunately it seems that, despite our varied backgrounds, lawyers are one profession they conveniently didn't bring.
Even so, it would have to be a very widespread sort of lawyer, since different places operate on different rules and laws.
[ Yeah, how do they even find that sort of lawyer... ]
[ Yeah, how do they even find that sort of lawyer... ]
Perhaps, but the basics of contract law should still be there, no?
[Sora probably handles some contracts given she's the dean of a ridiculously big and wealthy academy, but no doubt she also has enough to have specialized lawyers to handle those while she deals with everything else.
also it is because i know nothing about contract law and therefore i would look silly if
i tried anything haha]

[ i'd like to request handwave of the previous thread so i can live
She'll be looking for Sora, because those last 30 minutes of the trial didn't look good for her. Where could she be?? ]

[Of course, Haki! If there's anything in particular you want to have happened in the previous thread, please feel free to tell me!
Yeah, that last hour was pretty rough for Sora, especially physically. Uf. Perhaps that's why Sora is spending so much time at the lounge, staring at the stars. By the time Yuri finds her, Sora probably has calmed down a lot, now left with an uneasy vibe. You wouldn't be able to know if it wasn't for the emotionshare, though. Sora is real good at keeping her composure]

[ Sora is always good at keeping her composure, is what Yuri learned throughout the week here. She understands the uneasy vibe though, since all that happened and she remembers when Sora was getting hounded over the item that she didn't want to show or talk about to anyone.
Anyway, she walks over to Sora with a small medkit (A small, refillable medical kit, pre-packed for your potential bumps and bruises [1 minor heal]). ]
Mrs. Jingu... how are you faring? Are you alright?

Ah, Ms. Yuri. I'm presently alright. [She notices the medkit, smiling a bit] Since it was all a simulation, anything that happened there didn't last too long. Please, don't fret too much.
[As Todomatsu and Shoma can attest, though, Sora had a terrible time, because even though it was simulated the suffering it gave was real]>/small>

If you're sure...
[ She puts away the medkit. ]
The way it ended... was really unfortunate.

It was...but I suppose it could have ended worse: with someone innocent indicted for the crime. As harsh as this may sound, Mr. Brofiise being accused was for the best.
[It's always harsh, the truth is never nice]
[It's always harsh, the truth is never nice]
[ Yuri doesn't hesitate to nod. ]
No, it's not harsh. You're right. That's how it should have been.
[ Just unfortunate that it had to be like... this. ]

Now all that remains is to get a definite answer regarding Mr. Pierce. He might not have been murdered, but his still was an untimely death. He can't be allowed to slip through the cracks, now can he?
[Despite having known him for a short time, Sora liked Luke. Well, it's easy for her to like people because she has such a wellspring of patience it takes specific wrong moves to get on her bad side, but Luke was a polite young man and she'd appreciate his passing isn't brushed aside. She hopes the senior officers will keep everyone informed of any final findings about his sickness]

[ Yuri is at Book 'Em, the bookstore in the new planet they arrived in. She's checking out the bestsellers section and... squints... at this when she flips to a random page. ]
A normie...?
A normie...?
Yes. What happened to him was...
[ Untimely death. Very unfortunate. ]
... I hope Io can get to that matter quickly. If anything, perhaps... if he can be sent back home and buried in his homeworld.

[Although she doesn't really have much faith in Nut & Bolt, maybe they'll just open a portal and toss poor Luke somewhere and call it a day]
